Inspectors told us that we need to install 4 fire rated windows by the fire escape because the property is commercial...where can I get affordable fire rated windows / glass?

Just put in the new windows on the fix & flip in Tulsa.

@Elton John - I'd go to Star Hardware in Hartford and ask them who buys a lot of windows from them and see if they can give you a phone number.  

Everyone talks about the BRRRR method like it’s a formula — Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat.But after working with a lot of investors, I’ve noticed one thing that often gets overlooked:The “tax” side of BRRRR.Most people focus on the deal numbers — the purchase price, the ARV, the refinance rate — but forget that how you structure and record those costs can make a huge difference down the line.For example:Tracking your rehab costs separately helps you depreciate correctly later.Timing your refinance can change when interest expenses become deductible.And keeping good records on improvements vs. repairs can save you thousands when you sell or do a cash-out refi.The BRRRR method is powerful because it lets you build equity fast — but if your books aren’t clean, you’ll end up leaving money on the table when tax season comes around.The investors who scale fastest aren’t just great at finding deals — they’re great at documenting them.Curious — how do you track your rehab and refinance expenses during a BRRRR project?

I look for moisture around radiators/baseboards, bathroom fans, GFCI outlets, window guards, fridge door seals not cracked (tenants will never report this, your electric bill will), under-sink P-traps for slow drips.

I asked about open doors or windows , they later sent me a picture of bees swarming under the soffit .

Even higher if I want to sink some capital into some kitchen upgrades.I'll be using property management and they'll take 10% per month + 100% of the first month for getting a new tenant. 

@Andrew Foster some decent advice here, but also some feedback from those who really don't have enough info to support their perspective.Many DIY investors price repairs on materials only and forget about labor as they do their own work.We're a PMC in Metro Detroit, but here's how our process would work:1) MoveOut Video & Pics used to create Scope Of Work (SOW)2) SOW broken down into Priority Categories:- Health & Safety- Government Required (municipality/S8 inspection requirements)- Property Preservation- Marketing Impact / Tenant Retention- Miscellaneous3) Bids obtained if we feel work will exceed Owner Approval Threshold4) Bid sent & discussed with owner to, "redline to their budget"5) Work begins once owner approves & funds6) Completion video/pics providedOf course, while this is going on our Marketing Dept would be doing a rental analysis & ad, and discussing with owner.

Basement is partially finished with access form the ground floor only. 1st level is open concept kitchen/dining room with reading nook and oversized windows with great natural light.

, things to look for in a medium term (2-5yr) rental (no carpet lol, furnace, roof, and windows all intact), typical grading of neighborhoods you want to invest in.
